HEY ALL!! are you a fan of this fan or that

    "    I went down to the Chelsea drugstore to get your prescription filled, I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy, a-man did he look pretty ill, we decided that we would have a soda, my favorite flavor cherry red, I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy    "    Well the heat is ON!! What can I say, for the first time this year I had problems sleeping at night on Wednesday night, because of the heat. I just can't seem to get it cooled down enough over night. So I decided I wanted to hang a fan with a light in the living room to help with the heat. Found a VERY nice brushed nickel 4 bladed fan, good price, about $150.00. Also got a referral to have the fan installed. The major problem, there is no light box in the ceiling, so you would have to put one in and then run the wires. Talked to the electrician that was referred to me. Several minutes on the phone, his bid was around $450 to $500 JUST to install!! WOW!! That's more than 3 times the price I paid for the fan to start with. So now I'm looking at a portable unit, but you have to get a sliding glass door insert for that to work, so $400 for the unit and another $75 or so for the insert, and then you're HOPING it all works. The more I get into this the more I'm leaning towards a ductless system, but that's going to be probably around six grand to get it 100% done. WOW!! The advantage to a ductless would be cool in the summer AND heat in the winter, better than the baseboard, and I'm sure a bump in resale when it comes to that. More research is needed. All the while eBay is showing some signs of activity, especially the Ryan stuff. Hope to have more sales, from BOTH accounts!!  CHOW MOI!!
